Luzon, Province of Cagayan, San Vicente, For. Bur. 17236 Curran, March 8, 

 1909, on river banks near sea level. 



A species well characterized by its ovate-lanceolate or broadly lanceolate, 

 sessile leaves which are broadest in the lower part and distinctly cordate at the 

 base. Among the Philippine species apparently allied to Garcinia dives Pierre, 

 and (/'. evgcniacfolia Wall., but very different from both. 



KAYEA Wall. 



Kayea brevipes sp. nov. § Eukuiieu. 



Arbor glabra circiter 10 m alta; foliis anguste oblongo-ellipticis vel 

 anguste oblongis, usque ad 23 cm longis, subcoriaceis, nitidis, basi acutis, 

 apice acuminatis, nervis utrinque circiter 30, petiolo crasso, furfuraceo, 

 3 ad 4 mm longo; floribus axillaribus, solitariis, sessilibus vel l)revissime 

 pedicellatis, circiter 2.6 cm diametro. 



A glabrous tree about 10 m high. Branches and branchlets terete, 

 grayish-brown, rather slender. Leaves narrowly oblong-elliptic or nar- 

 rowly oblong, 15 to 23 cm long, 2 to 4 cm wide, narrowed, towards both 

 ends, the liase acute, tlie apex sharply acuminate, subcoriaceous, when 

 dry shining and somewhat pale; primary nerves about 30 on each side 

 of the midrib, not prominent, anastomosing, the alternating secondary 

 nerves frequently nearly as distinct; petioles stout, furfuraceous, 3 to 4 

 mm long. Flowers yellow, solitary, axillary, sessile or subsessile, about 

 2.6 cm in diameter. Outer two sepals orbicular-ovate, 7 to 8 mm long, 

 coriaceous, concave, obtuse, the inner two similar, tliinncr. Petals oblong- 

 obovate, about 13 mm long, tlie apex broad, retuse. Stamens indefinite. 

 Ovary glabrous, 1 -celled, 8-ovulate. 



Luzon, Province of Nueva Vizcaya, Amucucan, For. Bur. IJ/S'iG Darliiui. May 

 13, 1909, along streams at an altitude of about 500 m, locally known as babar. 



A species allied to Kayca navesii (F.-Vill.) Vcsquc, differing especially in its 

 much shorter petioles and larger flowers. It is probably the species identified 

 by Vidal as "Ochrocuipus lonyifolins Thouars ? ," and of which he figures a leaf 

 only (Sinopsis Atlas (1883) t. 12, f. E.).
